Bumblebee capacitor 0.022uF 400VDC, aluminum foil paper-in-oil, made in USA
Bumblebee Paper in Oil Aluminum Foil 400VDC capacitors speak for themselves. As one of the earliest construction types, featuring a pure paper/oil construction complete with a true hermetic seal, these tone caps were used by Gibson guitars for tone controls in the classic guitar designs of the 1950s. They offer the tone you crave and love, in the most accurate reproduction.
The improved dielectric strength is a key advantage. Jupiter Bumble Bee condensers are colour code marked 400V for historic reasons but cover a dielectric strength up to 600V, which also qualifies them for use in tube amplifiers as stage coupling capacitors.
Humbucker circuitry traditionally uses .022uF as tone cap; single-coil wiring often uses .047uF. The higher the capacity of the tone cap, the more significantly the top end gets tamed. It is quite interesting to experiment a bit to find the perfect match for your guitar and playing style.
